Fake news I'm afraid.
Not seeding. It isn't capable of that much difference. You might get 10% change to what's already there.
Professor Maarten Ambaum, a meteorologist at the University of Reading who has studied rainfall patterns in the Gulf region, said: "The UAE does have an operational cloud seeding programme to enhance the rainfall in this arid part of the world, however, there is no technology in existence that can create or even severely modify this kind of rainfall event."
The National Centre of Meteorology (NCM) told The National that no cloud seeding missions took place during Tuesday’s record-breaking storm.
“The NCM didn’t conduct any seeding operations during this event,” it said in a statement. “One of the basic principles of cloud seeding is that you have to target clouds in its early stage before it rains. If you have a severe thunderstorm situation then it is too late to conduct any seeding operation.
“We take the safety of our people, pilots and aircraft very seriously. NCM doesn’t conduct cloud seeding operations during extreme weather events.” |

It's offside. It's so obviously offside I can't see the there's a conversation to be had.
How is than not a distraction for the keeper.
Let that go and you can position a guy permanently just in front of the keeper in any conceivable situation. Or a line of players standing 1 yard in front of him. |

Funny really, I would avoid Times Sq like the plague. It's awful.
Below 30th is better.
23rd st is good. Along there to Chelsea and Greenwich Village.
Union Sq is good - easy access to Houston and downtown.
Otherwise 50th and above for the Park and posh shops - if you like that sort of thing. |

It wasn't really.
Zhang ran out of steam very early. He hit Parker with a couple of good ones but had virtually nothing else.
Parker was busy and aggressive but nervous of being in hitting distance ( obvs )
Not a great fight. |

They know what bravery is.
Us lot over here, we complain all day long about everything but being able to complain at all is something we should treasure. |

For the first time ever, I would go into the play offs quite confident.
I know our record is really bad but it's all a bit different these days.
The other 'Prem' team in the play offs, whoever that is, will be under massive pressure and be deflated from not securing automatic. ( amateur psychology 101 )
I think we would be really really up for it. |
